1980 15 Custom Center Console with 70-HP
Posted: Thu Apr 30, 2020 2:16 pm
In 2019 I redid a 1980 15-foot hull in my garage, making a custom 15-foot center console boat. It was a fun project. I removed water in the foam interior and some rot in the deck. I use a composite material made by COOSA COMPOSITES and a high-density foam. I am moderately positive I got the hull dry.
The 1980 SPORT 15 is powered by a 70-HP four-stroke-power-cycle engine. Top boat speed is 45-MPH. The engine is mounted on a jack plate. Five propellers were tested before I felt the boat was dialed-in. This little SPORT 15 boat really performs.
I have taken many photographs. This is my first post.
